The motto of the municipality of Bosau "Live and work where others go on holiday!" already describes the main purpose of this website: We would like to draw attention to the fact that there are excellent opportunities for "sustainable" businesses to settle here in rural areas. Holstein Switzerland, with its high landscape and recreational value, is particularly predestined for location-independent companies such as those in the software and telecommunications industry. At the same time, we provide information about areas for residential development (single-family homes). A special website for holidays
